During a visit to the ENT today, I was diagnosed with Meniere’s disease. While no one knows the exact cause(s) of Meniere’s disease, localized inflammation and retention are strongly suspected as culprits. Here’s a good overview: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/menieres-disease/symptoms-causes/syc-20374910
Among other things, the doctor suggested I cut down on sodium to prevent fluid retention, which isn’t a very keto-friendly suggestion. When I don’t get enough sodium I tend to get headaches and fatigue. I also know that keto tends to reduce fluid retention quite significantly on its own so… what do I do?
I’m looking for suggestions to stay on keto, but modify my diet (and other habits) to reduce inflammation and water retention as much as possible. What do you suggest?
Before anyone brings it up: Yes I already asked the doctor about this, but I got brushed off.
